Chapter 1781 Intercept the Marquis of Mozi on the front line!
...
Tap tap tap tap!
The sound of horse hooves sounded like raindrops hitting the ground, and the whole ground began to shake.
Marquis Mozi was riding alone, galloping with lightning speed, his eyes were as cold as iron. The hundreds of thousands of Eastern Navy troops following him were also sweeping in in a mighty manner. At a glance, they couldn't see the edge at all.
Like a vast giant dragon!
"Report!!!"
A scout from the Eastern Navy came flying from the front, clasping his fists on horseback and reporting urgently: "Your Majesty, General Yue's vanguard troops have successively attacked Xuzhou Guancheng, Yingcheng, and Lang County. The Han army was defeated in one battle.
General Yue is marching in a hurry, pounces on Xu Cheng, and asks the king to support him!"
The three armed forces in the East China Sea are shocked!
"We defeated several cities in a row and achieved a great victory. This is a great victory!"
"Haha, General Yue is highly regarded by the king. He is indeed a tiger general, a certain service!"
"In a few days, the city was destroyed one after another. With this achievement, General Yue can be directly included in Langya Pavilion's list of famous generals!"
"The land of Xuzhou is already half in the hands of the East China Sea!"
...
The officers and men of the Eastern Navy let out waves of exclamations mixed with envy and jealousy.
Xucheng is the last military stronghold in Xuzhou. If Xuzhou is captured, all of Xuzhou will fall into the hands of the Eastern Navy.
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Even the usually sullen Marquis Mo Zi couldn't help laughing and said three good words.
Looking at the military map, Marquis Mo Zi said in a deep voice: "The Han army is like a chicken and a dog, vulnerable to a single attack. The officers and soldiers of the Eastern Navy obeyed the order and followed my king to attack Xucheng and capture Xuzhou!"
"Attack Xucheng urgently and capture Xuzhou!"
The Eastern Navy roared in unison.
kill!
Mo Zihou was in high spirits and felt ecstatic.
As long as the plan to attack Xuzhou is successful, then the troops will be turned around, and the East China Sea can directly attack Jiangzhou. By then, the East China Sea will become stronger and swallow up the share that belongs to Nan Chu...
..
...
"coming!"
Lu Xun closed the frontline military report sent by the military aircraft department's Jin Yiwei, with a sneer on his lips.
Ever since Marquis Mo Zi sent troops to Qianzhou, all his actions have been under the supervision of the Military Aircraft Department.
Lu Xun asked: "Where is General Guan Yu?"
Guan Yu solemnly clasped his fists and said: "The end is here!"
Lu Xun pointed at the military map and smiled calmly and said: "The Eastern Navy's aggressive advance must pass through this gorge. General Yunchang (Guan Yu's cousin) can set up an ambush on the left side, and wait until the rolling stones and logs cut off the Eastern Navy's retreat.
If you can kill them, the Eastern Navy will be in chaos..."
"Take orders!"
Guan Yu answered while stroking his beard, his Danfeng eyes narrowed slightly, murderous intent bursting out.
Lu Xun then ordered: "Where is General Huang Zhong?"
The gray-haired old Huang Zhong cupped his fists and said, "I'm here!"
Lu Xundao said: "Old General Han Sheng (Huang Zhong's cousin) is brave enough to conquer all three armies. He can set up an ambush on the right side of the Xianxian Gorge. Waiting for the opportunity, he and General Yunchang will fight out together. Marquis Liang Mo Zi will not be able to escape even with his wings!"
"I know it all..."
Huang Zhong nodded and agreed.
He followed Guan Yu's orders not because Lu Xun was Liu Hao's brother-in-law, but because Lu Xun did have some skills in commanding operations.
Lu Boyan, a talented Confucian scholar with great military exploits, was recognized by the Han Dynasty as one of the most famous military commanders in the imperial empire, following Chen Qingzhi, Zhou Yu, and Yue Fei!
According to the terrain, Lu Xun arranged several ambushes one after another. Liu Hao nodded repeatedly and was secretly happy: Marquis Mo Zi, let's see where you are going!
...
A line of gorges.
There are many strange and dangerous mountain peaks here, and there are wolves, tigers and leopards traveling there. There is no path, only one accessible road that runs through it.
This is the only way from Qianzhou to Xucheng.
Mo Zihou was so proud of the spring breeze that his horse was hoofed, and he only had Xu Cheng in his heart. Without any hesitation, he directly led the army and marched towards the Xianxian Gorge.
Looking up at the majestic peaks, the cries of apes could be heard from time to time. The admiral of the Eastern Navy secretly exclaimed, "Your Majesty, the road ahead is extremely dangerous. Do you want to make some repairs and explore the way forward before advancing?"
However, Marquis Mo Zi flatly refused, "The art of war is as it is and the soldiers must be quick. The Han army must not have reacted at this time. We cannot give them a chance. The right way is to directly drive troops to break through Xu City. Although this place is dangerous, there is no possibility of an ambush.
General Yue has already explored the road ahead."
"Your Majesty is wise, but in the end he will be far inferior..."
The general was speechless and retreated.
Marquis Mo Zi gave an order, and the three armies of the East China Sea began to advance into the first line of the gorge. Amidst the bursts of ape cries, when the army was halfway through, suddenly a thunderous cry of killing came to their ears.
Immediately afterwards, on the mountains on both sides of the first-line gorge, there were rolling stones, and the wooden hammers crashed down, smashing the soldiers of the Eastern Navy who could not react in time into meat patties!
At this time, the shouts of the Han army and the wails and screams of the Eastern Navy mixed into a killing movement!
hiss!
Marquis Mo Zi was horrified and took a breath!
He stopped the reins and turned his head to look at the peaks on both sides. He saw densely packed Han troops emerging from the peaks, like ants, countless in number!
Damn it, you fell into the trap!!
There was a loud bang in his mind, and Mo Zihou's mind went blank!
Marquis Mo Zi may be a good player when it comes to murdering people with power, but not everyone has extraordinary military talent.
This line of gorges is obviously a dangerous and dangerous route for military strategists. A truly famous general would naturally keep a cautious eye and check the situation ahead first. However, Marquis Mozi committed a taboo of greed for merit and ran directly into the Han army.
within the surrounding circle.
Rolling stones and hammers fell suddenly, instantly cutting off the retreat of the Eastern Navy. The people of the Eastern Navy were neighing with excitement, and their front and rear formations became a mess!
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, there was... an ambush!"
The deputy general of the army rushed to Mo Zihou's side and said in a trembling voice.
Looking at this posture, the Han army has been prepared for a long time, and they don’t know how many ambush troops are waiting for them...
Marquis Mo Zi's face was ashen, and he stared at the Han troops on both sides with sharp and malicious eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "Why are you panicking? Anyone who dares to disturb the morale of our army will be killed without mercy!"
"Send an order to the whole army to break out from the first line of the gorge first, and send an order to General Yue, asking him to bring in troops for reinforcements!" ..
